Hedera ~ Celtic Tunic Wedding Dress

The Hedera celtic tunic wedding dress is unique. It has a strange, ethereal lightness, and a timeless shape, reminiscent of Celtic priestesses, of floating greek Goddesses, long silk gowns blowing in the wind. It emanates a natural, elemental feeling, blending effortlessly in the space around it.

Composed of three layers of silk fabric, the two bottom layers are cut as one and are loose but sit close to the body, barely skimming it. The top layer is a sheer crepe silk chiffon, light, breezy, flowing and entirely loose. The bottom layers and the top layer are connected only at the neckline, and so the top layer moves and flows with any small movement or breath of air.

This version on the tunic dress features a slit up the side of the bottom layers. The top layer is stitched to the under-dress only at the shoulder seam.

Styling ideas

You can wear the tunic wedding dress with a belt clasping the top layer all around, or just in front, or not at all, for different looks. The belt included is available in different finishes, the blush one that is featured has run out however. Additionally I can make it plain, or with a hemp main fabric. The back ties will always be the same silk chiffon of the top layer, and they will tie in a nice but not overly large bow.

It is ideal for maternity, as I can customise it to accomodate your belly. It also suits plus size bodies beautifully, highliting your waistline and flowing loosely on the rest of your body. The subtle veiling of your upper arm is very becoming, and effective in covering without engulfing you.

For the Blush color option, the bottom layers will be blush, the top layer will be ivory. You can see the blush/ivory version, styled with a hemp belt instead of a silk one, here. A very similar, but slightly different (more silk in the top layer) plus size version is pictured here.

And here you can see the same design, in a naturally dyed yellow (achieved with onion peels). If you’d like a custom dyed dress, do contact me!

Wow!!:):) Words can not fully express my happiness with my wedding dress!! It was better than I could have imagined. I wanted something that felt like me, I didn't want to be masked with the usual bridal glitz and glitter. I felt naturally beautiful, the dress was like a second skin. The dress is very light and comfortable it truly feels as nice as it looks. My favorite thing about this dress was how to flowed and twirled when I danced, it moves with your body! I felt like myself in this dress, it was a perfect for me.

Also the artist, Maria, seems like a sweet, sweet soul! I felt happy purchasing one of her products because she really seems to put a lot love into her work! If you have the chance to own one of her beautiful pieces of clothing, DO IT, I think her work holds a lot of good energy and magic!:)
